Software accessibility for users with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADHD) – software accessibility is a topic that I always try to keep in mind. The usual software accessibility patterns refer to visual impairment, e.g., color contrast, font size, etc. This post tackles the accessibility topic from the prism users with ADHD, and I find it groundbreaking.
